Chris,
I've come up with a plan, but first we need to establish the following:
1. Napalm or Electron Microscope?
2. Vegetable or Cardiac Arhythmia?
3. Healthy Competition or Sourdough Pretzels?
4. Chili Dog or Pride?
5. Shoo Fly Pie or The End of an Era?
I'll need your thoughts as soon as possible of course.
Also, if you can think of anything that I missed, it would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Patrick

Patrick,
I agree that the importance of staying on task can not be overstated. As new directions come to the forefront, each approach needs to be accounted for. Alignment of all strategies is a must, if we plan to green-light future considerations.
You make an excellent point that where we are today is only a small percentage of where we are going, and that in tomorrow's world our current long term forecasts are merely projections of our present ideals. I encourage you to continue your line of thinking and leverage all available assets to complete your efforts.

Chris,
Great, your feedback thusfar has been devastatingly useful. I think this is an excellent starting point. In your response you actually highlighted one concern that I do have. I'd like to suggest that there are too many foods and too little cliches presently in the equation. We'll need to work toward a much more generalized framework to work within. I'll touch base with you again by EOD.
In the meantine, see what you can do with these:
Recessed Lighting
Gutting the Fish
Returning the T-Shirt
Valentine's Day
A Bow Tie
Refurbishing the Attic
Interrogation
Irrigation

Patrick,
Your ability to continually add value always amazes me. Excellent work, yet again.
In regards to our prior discussion, I just wanted to loop back and stay focused on our stated objectives. Although, at the end of the day, this is not a hill I want to die on, I feel that I can convert our takeaways into 3 simple action items:
1.) Address any negative thought-procurement
2.) Reorganize the resource matrix
3.) Policy management *
* the key point.
Armed with this well defined plan of action, I feel confident that we will secure our position in the global workspace.
